How do you properly board a U.S. Navy ship?
Upon approaching the quarterdeck of any ship or submarine via its brow, you first come to attention (if a military member), face the National Ensign at the stern of the ship, salute, face the Officer of the Day/Deck (OOD) or the quarterdeck/topside watch, salute, and say "Request permission to come aboard". You of course add "Sir" if the person present is an Officer. For civilians, they approach the quarterdeck, acknowledge the Ensign, (veterans may salute if under cover, civilians remove hat) turn and face the OOD or watch, and repeat the same phrase. They will then ask your business and request ID, verify any security clearance required to board, as well as possibly searching anything you are carrying. For Flag Officers and Commanding Officers, the quarterdeck watch will also strike the appropriate number of bells on the ship's bell, and announce their arrival (by command title) over the 1MC (general announcement circuit).
What is the history of the US Navy ship Quarterdeck?
Quoted from....'Naval Terms and Customs' There is evidence that the marked respect paid the quarterdeck aboard ship today had its origin many hundreds of years ago. In the days of Greek and Roman sea power, obeisances were made to the pagan altar, which was placed aft. Later the same respect was paid the shrines of the Virgin similarly located. Still later the "King's colors," which were a symbol of church and state combined, became the object of respect. One is impressed with the thought that the quarterdeck has always been the honored part of the ship. It retains its "sanctity" today. (The name poop deck derives from the Latin word puppis, a name given the sacred deck where the pupi or doll images of the deities were placed. JWC, LT, USN
